"And Master, you—"

Minamoto Yorimitsu looked at the man in front of him.

"He is the one who holds this hope for me."

[You don’t doubt what Minamoto norimitsu said. 】

[Because it sounds reasonable. 】

[The eldest daughter of Qinghe Genji, she prepared in advance for the bad omen she saw in her dream, in case she could not realize the revival of her family. 】

[Although it is somewhat utilitarian, it is also a manifestation of responsibility. 】

[After all, it is better to prepare for a rainy day than to make up for it before it is too late. 】

"So, is this why you want me to teach you no matter what?"

"Yes."

Minamoto no Yorimitsu did not hide his thoughts at all.

"The eldest daughter of Seiwa Genji should be respected by an onmyoji like you."

“In this way, you can learn the true attainments in this area.”

"..."

Seeing that Ian didn't answer him, Minamoto no Raimitsu didn't press forward step by step.

With her graceful figure, she untied the outer layer of her robe, leaving only the appropriate underwear, and then slowly walked into the pool of water she discovered.

That beautiful long purple hair floated gently on the water, like scattered willow branches.

"I'm sorry, Master."

Minamoto no Yorimitsu said this, then stood in the water and gently wiped the chest of the man in front of him.

She was still so careful and delicate, and she didn't feel any of the bravery that a warrior should have.

Her fingertips pressed against the towel in her hand, letting it gently roam over the muscle contours of Ian's chest, leaving traces of familiar wetness.

"Master's body is really strong."

Minamoto no Yorimitsu felt the rock-like feel coming from his fingertips.

"Even if you just become a laborer, you should have the temperament of a leader, right?"

"Why are you in this situation now?"

[You are not the only one who has something to say. 】

[Minamoto Yorimitsu is also full of doubts about your current situation. 】

[This is not something difficult to understand. 】

[In her eyes, you are a great Onmyoji with a great reputation and a status known throughout Heian Kyoto. 】

[But now you live in a dilapidated house, and even your daily life is a problem. 】

[Anyone who has the ability to think cannot be without doubts in his heart. 】

"That--"

Ian looked directly at Minamoto Yorimitsu in front of him.

"What kind of life do you think I should live?"

"..."

Minamoto no Laiguang thought for a while and replied:

"A person with your status should at least be famous and respected by thousands of people, right?"

"No matter how bad things are, you should spend your life in a splendid place."

After hearing these words, Ian replied with a smile.

"Lai Guang, you seem to have a high opinion of me."

"Aren't you afraid that your expectations will be disappointed?"

"There are plans after failure."

Minamoto Yorimitsu answered calmly.

"Master, there is no need to worry about me - you should also know that I am not the kind of person who is hot-headed."

"..."

Ian did not respond to the source.

But she was not surprised.

After all, this isn't the first time he's been silent like this.

"Anyway—"

"Master, please let me complete what I promised."

"Things have to have an end."

After saying this, Minamoto no Yorimitsu and Ian looked at each other.

It is clear.

She was asking the man in front of her for his opinion - about the last step of taking a bath.

If he refused at this time, the warrior might really give up.

[But you don’t intend to do that. 】

[After all, you are essentially the same as Minamoto Yorimitsu, a person who likes to have a beginning and an end. 】

[So you don’t intend to refuse her request. 】

"I understand." Ian nodded.

"Then let everything have its beginning and its end."

"Thank you for your accomplishment, Master."

After saying this, Minamoto no Raimitsu removed his hands from Ian's chest.

sneak into.

The slender white hands spread two ripples on the water, and together with the wet towel, they turned into fish entering the sea.

They swim in the clear water, flexibly and skillfully.

Just as Gen Yoriguang himself promised, this change will complete the final step of the entire ritual for her.

That's what the two of them came here for.

arrival.

The two reached a contractual contact under the water.

Minamoto no Yorimitsu's face turned slightly red.

"Master, you are indeed extraordinary."

"Even under the cold water, it is as warm as the sun."

"Raiko."

Ian looked at her in front of him.

"Is this enough for now?"

"The process has been completely completed."

"It will be bad for your reputation if you continue."

"No." Minamoto no Laiguang shook his head.

"Master, I think I have already said it."

"You have to have a beginning and an end when doing things - hastily writing an ending to a story like this is the behavior I hate the most."

"At the same time, please rest assured."

"There was no foul play between us, so there was no suggestion of reputational damage."

"..."

Ian was silent.

And this represents his tacit approval of Minamoto Yorimitsu's behavior.

Everything became tacit.

The soft towel rolled under the water, making small whirlpools from time to time.

In this process, the jade is carved into a delicate shape.

The warmth spreads in the hands, gathering into an enduring legend.

"Master."

Minamoto Yorimitsu continued to express his sincerity.

She said this as she felt the warmth and coldness in the water.

"You have been wandering outside for a long enough time."

"If you don't mind, maybe it's time to stop for a while and leave some traces of yours."

"..."

"Lai Guang." Ian looked at her who was touching the top of her head.

"Do you know what this means?"

"I know."

Minamoto Yorimitsu replied with a slight smile.

"For me, being able to be a recorder of Master's past is also a way to show my 'respect'."

"..."

Ian did not respond directly to Minamoto Laiguang.

But the attitude of non-resistance is already more powerful than the answer.

The water surface rippled again under the dance of the warrior's fingers.

The towel floated to the surface.

In the midst of the cold and heat, the Great Onmyoji's magic weapon has been mastered.

Heaven and earth merge into one place.

Black and white merge, breaking through the calm water.

All the results were gathered on Minamoto Noraimitsu's face, which was clear and full of tenderness.

She closed her eyes and felt the flow from the bottom of the water.

Until they slide across reddish cheeks;

until they hang from the chin and pull out threads;

Until they drip onto the water and turn into blooming flowers.

"Master."

Minamoto no Yorimitsu, with his eyes closed, said with some joy of fulfilling the promise.

"You really still have expectations for this world, right?"

"I can feel all this - so please don't deny yourself this idea."

"You are a person worthy of respect, how can you live in a broken house?"

Ian looked at Minamoto Laimitsu, who had no complaints and was even a little happy, and was silent.
